Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, ensuring it is large enough to hold all pretzel sticks in a single layer.
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt ½ cup of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add 1 cup each of packed brown sugar and granulated sugar to the pan and bring to a gentle boil, bubbling for 3 minutes.
  3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Allow the caramel to cool slightly.
  4. Pour the warm caramel over the pretzel sticks in a large mixing bowl, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  5. Spread the caramel-coated pretzels onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring no clumps.
  6. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips until melted and smooth in 30-second intervals, stirring frequently.
  7. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the caramel pretzel layer and sprinkle sea salt on top.
  8. Refrigerate the baking sheet for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has completely set.
